Timberland Markmakers

Spring 2015 MarkMakers Schedule

Chicago, IL

FIRST STOP ON THE MODERN TRAIL

The Windy City was first up as we explored the stunning architecture of downtown Chicago. Hopping on the Loop we soaked in the beautiful scenery, including the likes of Cloud Gate and Millennium Park, before winding down in style with a celebration at the Timberland Store.

Austin, TX

NEXT STOP: AUSTIN, TX

Whether it’s feasting on barbecue or strolling down 6th Street, Austin sure knew how to show us a good time. From the venerable Lambert’s Downtown BBQ to the latest food trucks, we explored some of Austin’s finest, all culminating with incredible performances from up-and-coming musicians at the Pandora SXSW Discovery Den.

Marfa, TX

MARFA'S ARTISTIC NATURE

It's hard not to be in awe of Marfa's stunning surroundings. Our MarkMakers wandered off on the modern trail finding inspiration at every turn. Between checking out the local architecture and installations like Prada Marfa, it was often difficult to put its artistic wonder into words.

Tucson, AZ

TUCSON: AIRCRAFT BONEYARD

The next stop on the modern trail was Tucson, Arizona, where the MarkMakers walked around the industrial expanse of the Aircraft Boneyard, a place where planes are either destroyed or reborn. Thousands of hours of manpower are invested into repairing these aircraft, some of which are still used in force today.

Marble Canyon, AZ

MARBLE CANYON: NATURE’S BEAUTIFUL ARCHITECTURE

Our MarkMakers sought inspiration among the surroundings of Marble Canyon, Arizona, a truly magnificent experience. Eating lunch against the sunny backdrop of one of nature’s greatest achievements was the perfect way to cap off one of the more humbling parts of the modern trail.​​

Los Angeles, CA

L.A: City of MarkMakers

After a number of incredible stops on our modern trail, we finally reached our destination, Los Angeles, the City of Angels. Starting the day by watching the California sunrise in the Hollywood Hills and topping off the evening by hanging out with family and friends at the wrap party in Mid-City, it all came together to celebrate what has been an extraordinary journey.​​
